Indian Canyon Post Acute

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
44%

0

Indian Canyon Post Acute runs 99 certified beds in Yucca Valley under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: 35 deficiencies on file but none at the harm or jeopardy level, plus a recent inspection in December 2025. Staffing is thinner, 3.75 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running roughly 9% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 44%, a touch under the 45.8% national figure. One abuse-related deficiency appears in the record, worth asking about directly. The B reflects solid inspections held back by staffing that doesn't quite keep pace.

Dreier's Nursing Care Center

Nurse hours

Dreier's Nursing Care Center runs on a 52-bed for-profit operation in Glendale, and the staffing numbers are the strongest thing it has going: 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, about 15% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping roughly 9% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 34.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is where it gets harder to defend, 63 deficiencies on the current record, three at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $48,700 and a two-star health inspection rating. The last survey was June 18, 2025, so that record is recent. Good staffing, but a lot of documented problems to weigh against it.

Alhambra Hospital Med Ctr Dp/Snf

Alhambra Hospital Med Ctr Dp/Snf runs a small 26-bed operation, and its nurse staffing sits at 7.39 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below its own weekday level, and staff turnover of 29.5% is well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The tradeoff is a longer paper trail: 26 deficiencies on the current record, though none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. A July 2025 inspection is recent, and the for-profit partnership structure is worth knowing. Families weighing this home should ask what those deficiencies were and how they've been addressed.

Peninsula Post-Acute

Burlingame, CA · San Mateo County

CMS 4/5 62 beds For-profit
Nurse hours

Peninsula Post-Acute runs nurse staffing at 4.71 hours per resident day, about 22% above the national average, and its 36.9% turnover is better than the 45.8% norm. Those numbers look strong on paper. The catch is what shows up on the record: 42 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a 2/5 CMS staffing star despite the high hours, and weekend coverage that drops roughly 13% below weekdays. The most recent inspection was March 2026. A for-profit LLC operation with that deficiency history is worth asking about directly before you commit.

Alta Healthcare Center Of Camarillo

CMS 4/5 45 beds For-profit
Nurse hours

Staff turnover

0

Alta Healthcare Center of Camarillo runs 45 certified beds under a for-profit limited liability company, and the staffing picture is genuinely strong: 5.32 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 38% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 42.9%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The concerning part is the inspection record, 22 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $43,407 fine. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so that record is current, not stale. Strong daily staffing and a recent serious deficiency can both be true at once; ask what that harm-level finding involved.

South Pasadena Care Center runs 156 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.28 hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real margin, though weekend coverage drops about 9% below the home's own weekday level, so the weekday numbers flatter the picture. Turnover lands at 38.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. Where the home gives ground is inspections: 72 deficiencies on the current record, three tied to abuse, none at harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent visit in July 2025 and a 2/5 inspection star. Adequate hands, thin regulatory record.

Sonoma Post Acute

Sonoma, CA · Sonoma County

Staff turnover
43%
Serious cites
0

Sonoma Post Acute runs 83 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, and its staffing sits at 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 19% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the coverage your family member gets on a Saturday looks different from a Tuesday. The current inspection record carries 40 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse. Turnover runs 42.7%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the last inspection was April 16, 2026. What pulls the numbers in opposite directions is quality measures scoring at the top of CMS's scale while the health inspection record sits mid-range. Ask about weekend coverage and how the home handled those harm-level findings before you decide.

The Reutlinger Community

Danville, CA · Contra Costa County

CMS 4/5 60 beds Non-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
55%
Serious cites
0

The Reutlinger Community runs high on direct care: 4.83 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter more hands-on time than most homes. But the weekend dips about 16% below its own weekday staffing, and turnover sits at 55.4%, nearly ten points above the national figure, so consistency is the weak spot. Inspections from November 2024 produced 19 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one was abuse-related. For a 60-bed nonprofit in Contra Costa County, that reads as a well-staffed home on weekdays with a thinner weekend crew and steady churn to watch.

The Orchard - Post Acute Care

Whittier, CA · Los Angeles County

Nurse hours

The Orchard runs a 162-bed for-profit operation in Whittier, and the staffing numbers are the strongest thing it has going. At 4.34 nurse hours per resident day, it beats the national average by roughly 12%, and its 30.9% turnover is well below the 45.8% typical elsewhere, a real sign that workers tend to stay. The trouble is everything around that care. Inspectors have logged 55 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with $26,400 in fines and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating. Weekend coverage also dips about 7% below weekdays. Good hands on deck, but a record that says the building has problems staffing alone won't fix.

Alhambra Healthcare & Wellness Centre runs 97 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.10 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average of 3.86. That sounds decent until you notice weekends drop roughly 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, and the federal staffing rating lands at just 2 out of 5. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 55 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus one fine of $17,388. The most recent inspection was June 26, 2025. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, so clinical outcomes look strong on paper, but the inspection history and thin weekend coverage are what a family should weigh most.

Shasta Healthcare

Staff turnover
32%
Serious cites
0

The staffing numbers here look strong on paper, 4.71 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average, and turnover at 31.9% beats the typical 45.8%. That's a real edge in a rural county where hiring is hard. But the inspection side tells a different story: 31 deficiencies on the current record, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and four tied to abuse. Medicare has fined this for-profit corporation $84,526 across two penalties. The most recent inspection was April 24, 2026. Good staffing can coexist with poor oversight, the hours tell you who's present, not whether care is actually safe.

Osage Healthcare & Wellness Centre runs 53 certified beds in Inglewood under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing comes in at 4.41 hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 3% below its own weekday level, so the care doesn't thin out much on Saturdays and Sundays. What pulls the picture down is the inspection record: 45 deficiencies on file, though none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection dated February 2026. The staffing star rating sits at 2 out of 5 even with those hours, which suggests the mix matters as much as the total.

Mesa Verde Post Acute Care Center runs 80 certified beds in Costa Mesa under for-profit LLC ownership. Its overall nurse staffing of 4.23 hours per resident day sits roughly 10% above the national average, but weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday level, and CMS rates staffing at just 2 out of 5 stars. That tension between respectable average hours and a thin weekend floor is worth asking about directly. The inspection record shows 68 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. One fine totaling $4,558 has been levied, and the last inspection was recent, September 2025, so this reflects current conditions. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, a genuine strength. Ask how the abuse-related findings were resolved.

Stratford Villa Post-Acute is a small for-profit home in Livermore, 27 beds, run by a limited liability company. Its total nurse staffing of 4.27 hours per resident day sits about 11% above the national average, which sounds good until you notice weekends run roughly 5% thinner than weekdays, and CMS gives the home just 2 out of 5 stars for staffing. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 16 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus three fines totaling $46,779. The last inspection was in March 2024. Quality measures score a perfect 5, but that number can flatter a home whose actual oversight record tells a rougher story.

Cottonwood Canyon runs 96 beds in El Cajon under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 4.02 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 7% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover lands at 40.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same faces are more likely to stick around. The trouble shows up in inspections: 61 deficiencies on the current record, two at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus $20,518 in fines across two penalties. With a 2-star inspection rating against a 5-star quality measure score, the day-to-day care numbers look stronger than what surveyors have actually found.

Moraga Post Acute runs 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 39.3% sits below the national 45.8%, meaning people tend to stay. But weekend staffing drops roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so the coverage your family sees Monday may not be what shows up Saturday. The current record carries 28 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, and the staffing star rating is only 2 of 5 despite the decent hours on paper. Inspections were last done in November 2024, so the picture is fairly current.

Ocean Pointe's staffing is the strongest part of its case: 4.57 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average, and turnover of 31.6% that's meaningfully better than the 45.8% norm, that kind of retention usually means a stable, familiar crew, though weekend coverage does thin out about 13% below weekdays. The trouble is everything else. The current inspection record carries 57 deficiencies, including four tied to abuse and two serious enough to put residents in harm's way, with a $55,450 fine attached and the most recent look coming in March 2025. Solid bedside hours can't offset an inspection history that looks like this, that gap is what drags the overall picture down.

Valley Palms sits in North Hollywood with 99 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. The staffing numbers are genuinely strong on paper, 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, with turnover at 29.9% against a national 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level. Where this home struggles is inspections: a 1/5 CMS health inspection rating, 94 deficiencies on the current record, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $33,681. That inspection history from January 2025 is what drags the overall picture down despite decent staffing and quality scores.

Wolf Creek Care Center in Grass Valley runs 59 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership. Its nurse staffing sits at 3.82 hours per resident day, a hair under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 3% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover is 53.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The current inspection record carries 25 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. The last inspection was May 22, 2025. Federal quality measures rate 5 out of 5, but staffing rates 2 out of 5.

Sequoia Transitional Care runs 99 certified beds in Porterville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.10 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average of 3.86. That edge thins on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 9% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is 38%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because fewer departing nurses usually means more consistent care. The current record shows 39 deficiencies, 2 of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $41,759; no abuse deficiencies appear. The last inspection was January 15, 2026. A 5/5 quality measure rating sits alongside 3/5 marks for health inspections and staffing.
